What are These Retests of Short Term Support Turned Resistance That I Write About?

Hey guys,

From a day trading point of view, I write about the idea of retests of short term support turned resistance.” I want to talk about what I’m referring to.

Take a look at the following oil hourly chart for an example:

So if price is holding higher time frame resistance, all I’m looking for from there is a stepping down pattern. At the top of each step, I’m looking to short.

That step is the retest of previous short term support as resistance and is your signal. A signal that most importantly for day traders, offers excellent risk:reward.

With the above example in mind, take a look at the following hourly Bitcoin chart:

BTC/USD Hourly

Does it look familiar?

The only difference here is that we haven’t been rejected off higher time frame resistance. But being in the bear market we’re in and the fact price is now back under the most recent breakout level, this could be viewed as being the same.

Mark your levels and trade your levels.

✌🏻.

Yep, support as resistance. Testing it to confirm, teaching the basics I like it mate!

BTC on the larger timeframe needs to hold 7,500 area. My confidence is waning at the moment

This is my absolute bread and butter trading setup. It so often plays out with bare minimum drawdown.

Yep and it just worked on BTC, easy 100+ points

Definitely looking for short opportunities!

Keep taking those trades when they present.
